Nice forum everyone.
I don't have a water fed pole system yet but the advice I've read on here is helpful.
I have a few big hotels and care homes, but the rest of my work is mostly domestic and shops. If I only need to use a water fed pole a few times a month, what is the best kind of system to get?
-
Probably a small RO unit and 6 or so 25l drums for storage and a Sureflow backpack and what ever size pole you see fit

How long would a back pack last? How many windows could you do?
I suppose you just keep filling it up do you?

when i had a trolley sys using 25l drums i could do 2 x 3 bed semis on 1 drum thats was about 9 or 10 windows/doors

Mike,
I use a Backpack DIY System a bit like Chris mentioned. I love it and wouldn't use hoses out of a van but................
I notice you have a few large properties. The backpack would be a pain in the backside, filling it up several times. I only have 1 large property with, to me, endless rows of large pain windows. I only do the tops (a subidiotract for a local Contractor) but I have to fill up 4 times.
I would suggest you get a van mount or trailer mounted Tank with a delivery pump and pump controler and however much Microbore hose you might need (Hose comes in 50, 75 or 100 meter lengths). And put a 12v transferpump in the tank and get a backpack to do your domestics!! Because, mark my words, when you get the hang of WFP you'll want to wash EVERYTHING!!

Hi Mike,
I'll call around your house on Sunday afternoon and help you decide what WFP set up suits you the best.
